Question

A car has a mass of 2000 kg and accelerates at 2 meters per second per second. What is the magnitude of the net force exerted on the car?

Answer 1

Hello!

`\large\boxed{4000 N}`

Use the following equation to solve for the net force (N):

∑F = m × a

Plug in the given mass (kg) and speed (m)

∑F = 2000 * 2

Simplify:

∑F = 4000 N
